Mom of three: a wonderful adult son, who is happily married and has two beautiful sons of his own; a terrific daughter who is a Plan II major at UT (class of 2015) and an awesome son who chose to be home schooled and is now an English major at Southwestern University (class of 2017). People seem to know me best for my short stature, my tolerance of all but the intolerant, and my ever-evolving status as an eccentric cat lady.
